"Shiho's Home!"

The other day, Shiho came home and she's as adorable and sweet as she looks.

I do wish I had some summer clothes for her, as she looks fall/winter ready but I'll make do.

I'm writing this with kraken covid brain fog and am really struggling to keep up. I really want to prioritize my garden project and feel like I'm not able to.

After a year of struggling through unreasonable weather extremes, a lawn crew that destroyed a lot of my work, pots, and killed all of my plants I intended to sell for spring supply money without saying anything or even apologizing, after a year of getting sick whether I went out or not and suffering from my disabilities whether I liked it or not, and losing out on a lot of income opportunities in general there, after a year of losing friends for not being able to socialize after being sick and struggling with disability so much, I'll be honest... it's been really hard for me to even continue to want to do all of this. I can't find the strength or energy to start over where I have to, and where I maybe can, the brain fog is really real. Also, so what if I can sow seeds? I have no healthy soil to plant them in so that they survive, no way to clearly make beds to plant without someone else doing it, and the original plans are just. Not going to happen.

It took me years to make it here, and it's difficult to account for "setbacks" because there are just going to be more of those. I'm sorry, I'm so tired and broken over struggling/losing so much just to get one tree planted. I'm not even sad that a few seedlings died. It's really just the funding and lack of support since I really do seem to be doing it all on my own, and I'm really hurt over the amount of people in my life that don't care about me and only about what I can specifically give them when they want it.

So, I'm doing my best to heal from all of that and doing my best to keep this a priority in my life. I don't want to give up!!! I want to make it happen even if it seems extremely... like extra unnecessarily difficult for me, specifically, for some reason, lol. I want to keep going despite thinking that life sucks and no one cares, because listening to the environment and taking care of it to give native wildlife a healthy, more balanced sliver of home is more important to me than anything. It doesn't have to be a huge forest, I know I'm not capable enough to accomplish something so massive or great, but something small is still worth it. I can die leaving something of actual value to the earth in my stead.

I still want to have a life, though, and that requires being able to bring in an income, and being able to have physical and social skills in order to make the income-making part of living not a massive hell. It would also be nice to be able to leave my home and NOT get the plague, but that is too large of a request to make on society as we know it.

Everyone got mad for a year and most decided that trying to change society for the better was too hard, too much, and that it was easier to just pretend that everything was always fine and to just go back to work while everything continues to slough off and fall apart.

I understand that the reality was and still is a lot to accept.

If anyone else feels this frustration, I hope you know that you're not alone, or maybe I just hope that I'm not alone in this.

Keep going, even if your garden endeavors went from a massive plan to just a small potted plant. It's alright, keep going, gently expand your efforts as you can. You are good enough.

Someday.

It was the clove of the seasons Spring had tried to come, yet winter still clung And she looked at her patio

Right now, it looked gray Gray, muted, more akin to a graveyard The year before, she gardened

Something she'd do again If only winter'd submit and allow spring to come But things happen in due time

Someday, life will return To her patio.

why don't you look out a stranger's window and a glimpse of a life completely different and very like yours and remember we're all interconnected. and maybe you'll calm down.

#i am listening to the birds tweeting in somene's garden in raipur #and i feel cleansed #sometimes a dog barks nearby :)#it's a lovely little patio garden someone takes good care of it #and i feel very lucky that they wanted to let a stranger see it

"Satsuki goes to Lowes"

Well, she had her purse and her rainboots, so, surely, she wanted to go somewhere. If you're wondering, she's quite pleased with her findings.

We officially have space for our own garden!

The area is basically barren of an ecosystem excluding an old mango tree and hibiscus shrub on sandy soil, and so it's extremely hot and dry. My partner and I are in the process of laying mulch to establish a small forested area and in the meantime I've got some potted plants going. We're letting the mulch rest this year and will be transplanting saplings, shrubs, cactus, and vines I've started over the last 3 years to help create a healthy layer of soil and mycelium. The worm farm is expanding happily and the castings will be a huge help in the rebuilding process of the ecosystem. The trees aren't all necessarily native to the area but they hold ancestral power for me and will feed my family and community, we do want to establish a thriving native ecosystem and primarily grow native plants for food and health, though. Many plants have been chosen to provide food and shelter for wildlife as well, that is very important to us.

A lot of our potted plants died through the drought due to the heat, but I've got plenty of seeds and am starting again. What plants die this year will die and that is okay. I was also able to harvest the first tomatoes from the plants this year! It's not much but it's a start.

I feel so empowered to move forward with this project and continue my responsibility to my ancestors and the earth.
